Stores Forwarded to Captain Gibson, Etc.
Description
The following items were forwarded to Captain Gibson at Staunton: swords with belts, a drum and fife, a horseman's tent, common tents, camp kettles, axes, and gun powder. All are in good order except the only swords available were the light horseman's type. Langham is soon to travel to Kentucky but warns that the money on hand has mostly been spent. He will need to draw a bill in order to provide a sufficiency of money while he is absent.
